If it's only a 2 wheel drive I wouldnt waste money on good offroad shocks unless you plan on running the Baja with it. If not, keep it stock and wait till a good replacement 4x4 comes your way.

just go with inexpensive monroes or something similar. Its a 2wd You wont get much of a return on any money spent on it so try and keep spending to a minimum.

Ad yourself a rear locker, with those boggers it will probably go most places a stock 4x4 can go and maybe out do one in some places.
